[Activities of certain krebs cycle dehydrogenases and the content of ATP in oral cavity mucosa in experimental stomatitis in dogs].

In experiments with dogs stomatitis was simulated by ligation and section of the common biliary duct. On the third and fifth days in the oral cavity mucosa of the animals there occur essential changes in the energy producing reactions, which are controlled by pyruvate dehydrogenase NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, NAD-dependent malate dehydrogenase. This is accompanied by a sharp decrease in the ATP amount.
